Kickstarter Picks: The Last Door
By Dant Rambo
A horror game that's actually scary is a beautiful thing. More often than not it requires every component—eerie music, unpredictable events, solid writing etc.— working in tandem to cultivate the desired creepy atmosphere. But as we've learned over the years, realistic graphics are far from a necessity. Just take a look at Nanashi no Game and Home: both feature simple pixel art and are still incredibly frightening. The Last Door, a point-and-click adventure game playable via browser, is looking to follow this same humble path, offering up as many scares as it does pixels.

By Jim Squires
Alex Ahlund, the CEO of AppVee, has given a lot of thought to what the mobile market can bear. He's also given a lot of thought to the iPad, and how the one gaming market it will have a major impact on in the long run is the iPhone. In a recent editorial on TechCrunch, Ahlund discusses how the 99 cent iPhone gaming model came about, why it's bad for business, and how the iPad might eventually change it.
